Medium garnet red with bricking on the edges. Very stinky and savory on the nose with a little bit of a dry rub, mint, herbal and stony. Medium tannins (5.5/10) and solid acidity. Nice mouthfeel on the palate on the back end. Earthy characteristics, savory and red cherries. Needs a bit of time to beef up and open up. Medium bodied and medium plus finish. Drink till 2024.

2007 vintage in September 2024. Deep red garnet color. Plums, cherries on the nose with a big earthy aroma. Lots of fruit on the palate, black currant, hint of ripe strawberries, big tannins mid palate. Balance is superb with tannins matured to perfection between too young and bright , but not too soft. Excellent wine at an excellent stage of maturation.

Exceptionally fruity on both the nose and palate. Has aged very nicely. Could do with a few more years in the bottle...but why wait when it is so good? 😀
